Aeroflot — Russian Airlines, or Aeroflot (Аэрофло́т), is the Russian national airline and is the biggest carrier in Russia.
It was also the national airline of the Soviet Union and the largest airline in the world. It is based in Sheremetyevo International Airport in
Moscow. As of 2004, Aeroflot flies to 88 foreign destinations in 42 countries; it carried 5.9 million passengers in 2003.
Struggling to redefine itself as a safe and reliable airline, Aeroflot recently upgraded its fleet of western-build aircrafts. Now it has the total of 18 A320/A319 jet planes for short-haul flights in Europe and 9 Boeing 767 planes for long-haul routes. The total number of planes is 93.
